In a dropshipping model, your supplier or contract manufacturer handles fulfillment — but you own the customer experience. This creates challenges around visibility, coordination, and billing accuracy.
Axolt gives you complete control of the process without needing to hold inventory.
🧾 1. Order to Cash — Sell to Customers, Track Everything
When your customer places an order:
✅ Sales Order Created in Axolt (manually, via API, or eCommerce sync)
📦 Drop-ship Flag automatically routes fulfillment to the supplier
🔄 Order Status Updates are tracked as the supplier confirms shipment
🚚 Shipment Notifications keep customers informed with tracking and ETA
💸 Invoice is Triggered Automatically once shipment is confirmed
💰 Cash Collection is recorded against the customer invoice
🔍 Result: You maintain full visibility over delivery without ever touching the product.
📦 2. Procure to Bill — Manage Suppliers Without Manual Chasing
On the supplier side:
🛒 Purchase Order auto-generated and sent to supplier/contract manufacturer
📬 Supplier Confirms PO & Delivery via the Axolt Supplier Portal or email integration
📈 Goods Receipt logged based on shipment proof or tracking data
🧾 Supplier Invoice matched with PO & delivery for accurate billing
💸 Payment Scheduled based on agreed terms with full audit and approval workflow
🔍 Result: You stay compliant and accurate — even when goods never hit your warehouse.
